  • QUANTITATIVE PERFUSION ANALYSIS FOR EMBOLOTHERAPY
    Publication number: 20130345559
    Abstract: Methods for quantitative perfusion analysis for embolotherapy are presented. The method quantitatively measures blood flow changes based on angiographic information. The method may provide potential evaluation of optimal embolization endpoints in vascular vessels. The method may be used in various applications such as transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE), or other medical procedures that affect blow flow within bodily tissues. The method is applicable towards treatment of tumors in liver, kidney, brain, and other organs.
